    THANK YOU. I had been receiving calls from one such trashy SEO company for months. They'd been robo-calling me from random numbers continually despite me telling them to stop several times.

    Great! I complained to the BBB about this practice last month, but all received was an unsatisfactory response from the SEO company. I was also disappointed in the BBB's lack of action. I'm glad someone with legal resources is taking this on.

    Thank you for finally addressing this. I have over 50 numbers from these callers in my Do Not Answer contact on my phone and it will be nice to put "Sharon the Google Specialist" out of work.

    It's sad really, everyday I hear my fellow business owners complain about rampant techniques like this. Actually I talk about it here https://davidscarpitta.com/is-google-calling-my-business/ in fine detail about the unscrupulous tactics that are deployed daily.

    THANK YOU! This company has been calling me every other day from a different, untraceable number for months... every time I asked to speak to a manager or ask if they were actually calling from Google they promptly hung up. Ah. Sigh of relief.
